ristorante La Montagnola di Petrotta Efrem In Piana degli albanesi

Everything was wonderful. We had lunch for three for work. I hadn't been to this restaurant in at least 20-25 years. I found the location very elegant, the service quality and impeccable staff were excellent. The prawn tartare, the turbot on a bed of potatoes, and the spaghetti with prawns and pistachios were excellent. We ordered a myriad of things, all good, but these dishes really won me over. Try the almond parfait... Not with hot chocolate, though; I serve it with coffee and Baileys. It's sublime... I'll happily return.

We booked this restaurant, which is beautiful from the photos and has a wonderful presence. The location was truly perfect, with an open kitchen and a relaxed atmosphere. The owner told us they only serve fish, and we were looking for a place to eat excellent fresh fish. So, we had very high expectations. The menu was limited, but decisive. The raw fish appetizer was delicious and very fresh. For the main courses, we had the octopus au gratin on a bed of mashed potatoes, which was also delicious, but... the other main course we chose, the Mazzara shrimp frozen on board (it was written there, and they claim it), was unfortunately disappointing. It was cooked well, but I'm sorry, it wasn't Mazzara shrimp, since we know it very well, very well, and we've eaten it both fresh and frozen beforehand, and it's recognizable even to those who aren't experts. This shrimp they brought us is the classic one found frozen in large packages, also because you can recognize it by its color, flavor, and the fact that it doesn't come off its shell. For this reason, we were honestly very disappointed. We didn't say anything to the owner because he seemed rude. But why waste time on a glass of water if everything else was impeccable? Raise the price a bit and serve a top-quality product. Otherwise, don't write "Mazzara shrimp," please!!! The baked potatoes were excellent. For everything else, we congratulate you and will definitely be back. NICOLL AND CALO. P.S.: I would recommend some very soft music to accompany lunch or dinner, to muffle the commotion in the kitchen and still enhance the food. That relaxing Chinese or Japanese music, since that's mostly the theme.

Everything is excellent... Very fresh fish, cooked with care and attention... I must say that I have now become addicted to their cuisine and at least once a week I have to taste their delicacies...❤️

A restaurant with excellent cuisine, especially seafood. The seafood soup, scampi, razor clams, and more are a must-try. The owner is friendly and a perfect host. Excellent value for money.

Beautiful place, excellent seafood, very fresh oysters, highly recommended

I've been frequenting this restaurant for over 30 years, and it's become a firm fixture. The owner, Sebastiano, is extremely kind and always attentive to his customers' needs, a quality that is reflected in his impeccable service. The atmosphere is pleasant and welcoming, with fresh and well-kept spaces, especially ideal during the summer months. The quality of the food is consistently high: from the pizzas to the appetizers, every dish is prepared with great care and is truly delicious. It's a perfect place for families as well as for special occasions or receptions. The fish dishes are especially noteworthy, always fresh and top-quality. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for quality, courtesy, and a relaxing atmosphere.
